Wishing all of my followers a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Christmas and model trains kind of go together in my mind. However it is a busy time of the year but we are continuing to make progress on the railroad. For all practical purposes one third of the CTC board is installed and operating for testing purposes. I do have to complete the track diagram, signal designations, and location names on the model board. I expect to complete that next week and will publish a photo as soon as it is done. The Norton area is progressing nicely and I am beginning to finalize the plans for the mine tipple based on the Norton, WV coal mine. Stay tuned and stay safe. Jay
